Blow me one last kiss...

It's been another busy week for me this week! Lectures and work, my first open mic night at work (a reasonable success I must say!) and last night was spent at the boyf's. I helped him out with doing a months worth of shopping, so he thanked by cooking me steak and egg with alphabites. One of my favourites, best boyfriend ever!

Anyway. In among all the madness I have managed to get in a few snaps of what I wore to work on Tuesday, bit late so I am sorry!








Shirt and Longsleeved tee - H&M, Shorts - River Island, Boots - Melody, Cross earrings, peace necklace, skull and frog ring - Topshop.

As it it Thursday night, my weekend starts here, and I am beginning it trying not to cry at Hollyoaks then a night full of coursework!
The fun begins tomorrow as I have been invited to the 25th anniversary party for Jeffery West in recognition of my placement! Bit nervous to go alone though, I don't know what industry events are like! Any bloggers got any advice?

All exciting!
Hope you are all alright! 
Love love love!

Grow up and get a job...

Well... This week I did both.
I finally decided as I am now living in a house and paying bills and rent and having responsibility that it was about time to lose the crazy blue hair, endless shopping and general childishness. Shopping this summer has left my bank balance crying at me, so the time has come to stop moping and get a job. So after 3 weeks of hunting around I have one. I will be on trial for the first few weeks, but hopefully it will be fine.

I must now apologise for my lack of blogging the last few weeks, we only got set up with internet Monday, and as I started lectures on Tuesday I have been rather a busy bee and have found myself short of time. Slap me on the wrists, but please don't leave me! I fear blogging may become slightly less frequent, but time permitting, I have some plans that will hopefully become apparent in due course...

So today was my last day of the week, my lovely timetable gives me Mondays and Fridays off, which is brill, plenty of time to do work and go to work! And hopefully chill too, and this is what I wore!




Shirt - H&M, Jumper and shorts - River Island, Rucksack - Primark, Boots - Melody.

As it was back to school this week I felt like a collar and jumper was in order, topped off with a geeky rucksack. 
I also decided that job hunting with blue hair was not particularly easy, and even though I got the job while I had blue hair, I decided that I needed a change. Brunette it was. I am not gonna lie, I was slightly terrified of putting brown on top of blue, but I think it came out okay, and I feel alot more sophisticated for it. 
Not to mention it is soooo much easier waking up in the morning and being able to wear anything without thinking about whether it clashes or matches my hair too much. Getting ready takes half the time! 

So I am really excited about the year ahead, my second year has lots of exciting fashion things going on and quite frankly, I can't wait to get stuck in!
Tonight I am off to bed to watch gossip girl and mentally plan my day off tomorrow, What are you all up to?

Ciao Ciao for now, sleep well my beauties!

Happy Friday!

Hey guys!
So this has been a relatively good week, particularly yesterday. If you had seen yesterday's post you will know that I received my Galaxy Note that I upgraded to on Wednesday. As you could probably tell, it is taking me a while to get used to the size and keypad after 2 years with blackberry. This means that I have finally joined the world of instagram! Follow me when I have finally worked it all out and got it linked to this.

If any of you have any good apps that you'd recommend, let me know!






Shirt - Newlook, Top - H&M, Pleather trousers- Topshop, Bag - Ark, Boots - Jeffrey Campbell, Belt - Vintage, glasses - Red or Dead.

I thought I'd try the layering trend a little today, as I am not keen on either of these tops on their own, and actually, I love them together! I won't go into the trousers or boots again as you all know how much I love them!
Yesterday I had my hair bleached again. My roots were beyond a joke, and I wanted to dye it crazy colours again, however, now my hair is brittle like straw and was snapping as I was straightening it, I feel like this was one bleach too much! Any of you beauty bloggers got any solutions for me? Apart from "I told you so" as I've already heard enough of that!
Despite the bleaching, I did dye it minty green again today, and hallelujah! I got the mix right so it came out pastelly finally! It doesn't show up too well here though :(

Tonight I am off to the boyf's house, then I have absolutely nothing planned for the rest of the weekend. Sadface. Do any of you have anything nice planned? 

Ciao ciao for now!

Busy day!

So today I went to Norwich with a friend. First we did a spot of shopping. (If you read my blog, you will know I have a bit of an addiction.) So anyway. Shopping. First I attempted to find a suitable pair of JCs at Office, however, Norwich, as lovely as it is, probably the nicest place ever this close to Dirty Yarco, has a very pants Office, where they only stocked like 3 pairs of JCs. So unimpressed, we hauled arse out of there and headed on to Topshop, where I am pleased to announce I finally managed to buy a decent bowler hat. It wasn't the one I fell in love with in London but was too foolish to buy, but it was pretty darn great. (FYI I will be selling my black straw bowler for a good price if anyone is interested.) I also bought a fantastic Tee by Project Tee, a brand that I am in love with on account of their fabrics being so comfy and flattering.

We then trecked over to the hospital, as my gorgeous friend is having a huge op to fix her jaw in 2 weeks, which if possible will make her even more gorgeous than she already is! Everyone wish her luck! She doesn't have blogger but does read my ramblings and I'm sure she will love you all for some supportive messages!

Anywho, this is the outfit I wore yesterday. I won't post today's outfit as you have all seen that before.









Necklace - Kukee, Shirt and cape - H & M, Pleather Trousers - Topshop, Boots - Pasha, Bag - Aldo, Scarf (On bag) - New Look.

Now I know this outfit isn't exactly original either and you've seen this shirt before, and these leggings, and this cape, and bag, but I love them so nerrr. Plus I haven't had time to wear my new stuff yet! Well. I say new. I mean stuff I bought today. Friday's stuff is still classified as new too ;)

In other news. I want you all to celebrate with me. After the disastrous trip to Office today, I finally bit the bullet and ordered a pair of spiked JC Damsels online from Formosa. They are pre-ordered so now I have the agonising wait. However I am so excited!

How are you all spending your evening/day tomorrow? I am off to the gym, finally, then off to see the lovely boyf. Big grin! And tonight I am watching the end of Two Broke Girls then off to bed to continue adventures with Mr Christian Grey, who quite frankly I am finding slightly disappointing and repetitive, but I will give him another chance ;)

Ciao Ciao for now!

A very rare sunny day in July.

So today I looked out my window and saw that although it was sunny, it was very windy, so I suspected that  it would be cold. I felt that it would be a good idea to dress warmly in my trusty black stuff before I went to apply for yet another job, this time at a hair salon.
However, when I was waiting for the bus I realised how warm it was and that I had made a mistake in not wearing a tee and shorts.

Anyway. This is a fairly short post on account of I have to rush off and shower and get ready to see the boyf, he came home from uni today after packing up all his stuff, and we have a bit of a horror fest planned tonight yay!

So here are today's photos!








Glasses-Primark, Cape-H&M, Smock shirt-Forever 21, Leggings-Primark, Boots-Pasha. 

Sorry about the slightly over exposed photos, the sun was very bright in my garden tonight! 
I bought this cape from H&M last September, for the small price of £29.99 and I love it! It has a very 1960s feel to it, and the stripy lining has a cheeky flash through the sleeves.
The Smock shirt was bought from Forever 21 on my Uni trip to NYC, and has become one of my wardrobe faves. Loose and comfy, it is great for hiding away under when I am having one of those days, yet the sheer fabric allows for a sneaky sexy peek at what is underneath, so it can be made into a stylish, sexy top.

I have raved about these leggings and boots a million times so I won't do it again. Apart from saying that they are amazing. There.

What are you all up to this evening and tomorrow? Anyone got anything nice planned for the weekend?

I took these photos of some flowers in my garden just because they were pretty. And the red roses are my favourite colour ever.



Au revoir, toodle pip!

A productive day.

So today I woke up insanely early for a doctors appointment, got home at 10 and didn't really have alot to do, so I applied for yet another job. Just waiting to hear from them.
I then decided that I was going to start making my friendship bracelets today, so I made 4, and have already sold 2! Admittedly they were to my brother but hell, that will pay for my lunch tomorrow ;)








These are the ones I have made so far! 

I am gonna be selling these, around £5 for 1 or £7.50 for 2. I will also be making them on request, so you can pick your own colours and how you want the beads. Just email, comment or tweet me for details!

So today has been a looong day of being creative. And I have rope burn on my hands from the threads, but it was fun!

And finally, an outfit post for you all!
Felt like being a bit more smart and sophisticated today so I went for a bit of monochrome and a nice shirt.






Shirt - H&M, Shorts - River Island, Shoes - Pasha

I love this shirt, because it is loose and sheer, it is slightly sexy but without being too slutty and the shorts... Well you know all about these babies, likewise these shoes. I have so many clothes that I can't fit them in my room, but somehow I end up going back to the same old statement pieces. 
This necklace is something I found a while ago cleaning out my room and I forgot I had it, but I think it goes great with this outfit!

Anywho, what do you all have planned for the rest of the week? I'm off out to lunch tomorrow then shopping with a friend on Friday, without any money. This is going to be a test for me like a fat kid in a cake shop!
I'll let you know how it goes! 

Contact me if you are interested in buying a bracelet! Great for festival season!

Ciao ciao!

Just another Saturday...

So today I was forced to wake up at some ungodly hour (midday) as we had people coming to view the house. I had no idea what to wear either, on account of having a bit of a fat day and the weather being so rubbish, so I just threw on my fave black tee, which is incredibly flattering and comfy for days like this.
I also braved it and wore my acid wash jeans, as I felt that they have not had enough wear considering I bought them a few weeks ago. They have however become a wee bit too tight. Off to the gym with me this week!








Jacket - River Island T-Shirt and jeans - H&M Necklace - Miss Selfridge Boots - Pasha

This jacket used to be one my fave pieces because it is so glittery and shiny and quite frankly I like the fact it looks like something a magician would wear! Unfortunately, it has become a bit too big for me so I will be selling it along with some other stuff. Just email me if you're interested!

What has everyone got planned with the rest of their weekend? I am gonna go see my Grandad tomorrow day then off to boyf's tomorrow night. Maybe squeeze in a run there somewhere as too much binging is starting to show. Hope you all have a lovely Sunday! Keep checking back, will be putting stuff on my Buy My Stuff section over the next few days.

Au revoiur! Toodle Pip!!
